It provides innovative perspectives on well-documented developmental challenges (e.g., poverty and lack of resources) as well as insights into the benefits of familial and cultural strengths. Coverage includes recent theories in child development, empirical studies of rural minority populations, and leading-edge interventions for urgent issues. The volume presents a spectrum of opportunities for understanding and providing services for youth in the United States through the lens of a diverse collection of ethnic minority experiences in rural settings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics featured in this volume include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheoretical models focused on the intersection of ethnicity and rural settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFamily processes, child care, and early schooling in rural minority families.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromising strategies for conducting research with rural minority families.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrengths-based educational interventions in rural settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromoting supportive contexts for minority youth in low-resource rural communities.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRural Ethnic Minority Youth and Families in the United States \u003c\/i\u003eis a valuable resource for researchers and professors, clinicians and related professionals, and graduate students across such disciplines as clinical child, school, and developmental psychology, family studies, social work, and public health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e ------\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"Bringing together cutting-edge scholarship in this watershed publication, Crockett and Carlo provide a singularly important foundation for future research seeking to describe, explain, and optimize the strengths of these still relatively understudied youth.\" \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard M.
